5.2 Run procedure
Ensure that the rotor is correctly loaded. Close the lid and press down firmly.
Press
As the drive is engaged all displays will change to
ACTUAL values.
At approximately 150 rev/min the microprocessor checks a signal received from
the rotor which typifies its maximum speed and checks the SET speed. Should
the SET speed be greater than the maximum allowed for the rotor in use the
SET speed will automatically be reduced to the maximum allowed.
When in RCF mode the speed check described above is still initiated after the
SET RCF value has been converted to the equivalent speed value, if the SET
RCF exceeds the maximum allowed it will be reduced to the maximum.

condition and “POWFAIL” will appear on the status display,
(see Critical System Errors).
5.13 Opening lid during power failure
An electrical interlock prevents the lid being opened while the rotor is turning or
when the power is disconnected. If access to the rotor is required during power
failure use of the lid lock release key is necessary, this is supplied with the
accessories. Insert the key into the small hole on the top of the lid, near the front.
Move the point towards the rear, a slight spring pressure will be felt and the lid
lock mechanism will be actuated. Press the lid actuator to the right and open the
lid. The lid is counterbalanced to remain open.

8. ROTORS
8.1 Installation of Rotor
Before fitting a rotor to the centrifuge ensure that the drive head is clean. Check
that the rotor is clean and pay particular attention to the pivot pins of swing-out
rotors and the pockets in angle rotors.
Locate the rotor on the drive shaft and ensuring that the correct spindle nut for
the rotor in use is employed tighten nut using the spanner provided.
8.2 Removal of Rotor
Open the centrifuge lid to gain access, then set the power switch to OFF. Lift out
all rotor accessories, e.g. buckets. Remove the spindle nut and grip the rotor.
Gently ease the rotor upwards clear of the spindle.
Note: Do not attempt to loosen the rotor by tapping on the drive head.
8.3 Loading the Rotor
Buckets, cups and trunnions are supplied as matched, balanced assemblies. It is
important that all components should be stored and used together. The rotor
must always be used with a full complement of buckets, but it is not necessary
for all buckets to be loaded, provided that the loads are placed symmetrically
around the rotor.
When using the angle rotors ensure all the pockets are clean before fitting the
buckets. When using the swing out rotor ensure that the buckets swing freely
about their pivots.
If datum marks exist on the wind shielded lids, ensure that these marks are
aligned with the corresponding datum on the windshield body or rotor hub.
DO NOT RUN WINDSHIELDED ROTORS WITHOUT THEIR COVERS IN
PLACE. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS REQUIREMENT COULD RESULT
IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE CENTRIFUGE DRIVE.
CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO PREVENT DISTORTION OF WINDSHIELDED
ROTORS. LIFT THEM BY GRASPING THE ARMS OF ROTOR SPIDER AND
NOT BY THE WINDSHIELD.
If using a swing-out rotor, check that all cups/buckets are correctly located on
their pivot pins by ensuring that they swing freely.
8.4 Balancing the rotor
The loads should be reasonably balanced, which in most cases means
equalising the liquid levels by eye. In the swing out rotor do not exceed 5 grams
between loads when fully or partially loaded.
When loading trunnion carriers the following procedure should be followed:
1) Weight group the buckets to within 5g.
2) Weight group the trunnion block and buckets as an assembly to within 5g.
FAILURE TO LOAD THE ROTOR CAREFULLY WILL TRIP THE OUT-OFBALANCE SENSOR, CAUSING THE CENTRIFUGE TO STOP.
ROTORS
37
In this case the display will show “M/C has imbalanced”. An unbalanced rotor will
make the centrifuge noisy in operation.
8.5 Critical Speeds
Like all centrifuges the Falcon 6/300 has a critical speed associated with each
rotor. It is therefore recommended that continuous running between
400 - 700 rev/min is avoided.
8.6 Materials with specific gravity in excess of 1.2
Maximum speeds of rotors (see tables on following pages) are calculated on
the basis of tubes filled with a sample of specific gravity 1.2. If liquids of higher
specific gravity are used, the maximum speed of the rotor must be reduced
according to formula:
Where M = New maximum speed
N = Maximum rotor speed at 1.2 specific gravity
S = Specific gravity of sample
8.7 Spillages
In the event of a liquid spillage the affected surfaces should be cleaned
immediately. The rotor and accessories should be removed for thorough
cleaning. Regular cleaning of the centrifuge is highly recommended to avoid the
build up of contaminants.
8.8 Corrosive materials
Where particularly corrosive materials are to be centrifuged, the samples should
be placed in sealed containers and all necessary precautions observed. The
following list gives examples of corrosive materials used in laboratories.
•
•
•
•
Phenol/cresol/water
Chloroform/isoamyl alcohol
Salt solutions (especially ammonium sulphate)
Solutions of ammonium hydroxide and acidic solutions e.g. hydrochloric,
trichoracetic and perchloric acids.
Other materials may be equally corrosive, the user is responsible for checking
the characteristics of substances used.
NOTE: The following materials are prohibited:
Flammable or explosive materials
Materials which chemically interact vigorously
ROTORS
38
8.9 Infective samples
Very special care is necessary when infective materials are to be centrifuged.
Sealed containers should always be used. The caps should be double checked
to ensure that they are not damaged and fit correctly prior to starting the
centrifuge. After use containers and caps should be sterilised immediately using
a non-corrosive method.
NOTE: Sealed containers and related components are intended to be part of
biosafety systems such as are specified in international and national biosafety
guide lines, and cannot be relied on as the only means of safeguarding workers
and the environment when handling pathogenic micro-organisms.
8.10 Servicing
It is advisable to have this centrifuge serviced regularly by a competent engineer,
preferably the manufacturer's representative, at least once per year.

10. MAINTENANCE
This section describes the basic maintenance procedures, in particular, the
methods and materials used for cleaning the centrifuge, rotors and accessories.
It is recommended that a regular inspection of the centrifuge is made after 1000
hours of operation or at least once per year, whichever is the sooner. This should
include all rotors and accessories.
Electricity at Work Regulations (1989). Portable Appliance Testing (PAT) Where applicable this centrifuge should be inspected and tested regularly in
accordance with these regulations and the appropriate records kept.
For Warranty Service and Maintenance please see the details given at the front
of this manual.
10.1 Resetting the Thermal Fuse
The Falcon unit is fitted with a thermal fuse/trip to prevent power overload. The
trip is located at the rear of the unit adjacent to the mains cable and can be reset
by pressing the plunger back in, towards the rear panel. Should the fuse trip
immediately or again during normal use, the power supply should be
disconnected and the service engineer called.
10.2 Cleaning
To maintain a good appearance and to prevent dirt build-up, the casing and the
inside of the bowl should be cleaned regularly using a soft cloth dampened with a
neutral detergent and warm water. The keypad and display may also be cleaned
in this manner, but should be wiped dry immediately.
If corrosive materials are used in the centrifuge, it is especially important to clean
out the centrifuge bowl thoroughly. If a major spillage occurs in the bowl, the
excess liquid should be mopped out and the bowl then cleaned using a suitable
cleaning agent.
10.3 Disinfecting
To disinfect the centrifuge the following cleaning fluids may be used
TERMINEX 2 (available from Arrow Chemicals Ltd)
VIRKON (available from Antec International)
These cleaning agents if used as instructed by the manufacturer should not be
harmful to the centrifuge or the accessories supplied for use with it.
WARNING
SOLVENTS OR GRITTY CLEANERS SHOULD NEVER BE USED
EXCESSIVE USE OF WATER SHOULD BE AVOIDED
10.4 Drive shaft
The drive shaft should be cleaned periodically with a solvent to remove
excessive grease. When clean, re-lubricate the shaft lightly with petroleum jelly.
MAINTENANCE
10.5
45
Rotors and buckets.
The typical environment used in centrifuging, can, over a period of time create a
strength degrading effect in rotors and accessories used, also additional hazards
in the form of corrosion and/or stress corrosion. These conditions can reduce the
basic strength of the centrifuge component and could lead to premature failure.
Simple corrosion, particularly in Aluminium, can usually be seen by the naked
eye and appears in the form of pitting or white fluffy deposits on the material
surface. Stress corrosion usually is more damaging than simple corrosion and is
the adverse effect created by a combination of both stress and chemical
reaction.
The rotors and accessories should be handled with care to avoid damage. Prior
to storage, all components should be protected against corrosion using MSE
Rotor Spray (Cat No. 17341-1512) which is an anti-corrosion and de-waterizing
agent.
Washing the rotors and accessories in warm water containing mild detergent,
ensuring it`s thoroughly dry, followed by spraying with MSE Rotor Protection
Spray (Cat No 17341-1512) will help to prolong the life of your rotor and
accessories. Always handle rotors and accessories with care to avoid damage.
Buckets and cups should be stored inverted.
Rotors
The trunnions of the swing-out rotors must be lubricated at regular intervals to
avoid the occurrence of imbalance within the assembly. Non maintenance of the
trunnions can lead to the buckets swinging out in a staggered motion inducing
imbalance and possible damage to samples or the centrifuge.
IT IS RECCOMENDED THAT THE TRUNNIONS ARE LUBRICATED DAILY
OR EVERY 8 HOURS OF OPERATIONAL USE.
Before lubricating the trunnions ensure that all of the existing Molykote and any
debris is fully removed - do not use abrasive cleaners or this operation.
Buckets
Ensure that the slots machined into the buckets are clean and lightly lubricated.
• Pivot areas should be cleaned using Loctite 7063 and a soft cloth
(cheesecloth).
• Spray each area with lubricant spray D321R
• Leave for approximately 20 to 30 minutes to dry and then polish each
pivot area with a clean soft cloth
Spray cleaner – Loctite 7063 (Cat. No. SG. 16200.026)
Spray lubricant – Molykote D321R (Cat. No. SG. 22100.042)
NOTE: Please follow spray cleaner/lubricant manufacturers recommendations
during use.
MAINTENANCE
46
10.6 O-Rings
Ensure that the O-Rings fitted to the sealing caps and covers are lightly coated
with silicone grease. Check the O-Rings regularly for cuts and abrasions,
replacing as necessary but at least once a year.
10.7 Sterilisation
All of the rotors, buckets and sealing caps (with O-Rings removed) may be
sterilised by autoclaving at 121°C for 22 minutes. The plastic adaptors may be
autoclaved at 121°C for 10 minutes.
DO NOT autoclave any parts where the protective finish is scratched or
damaged.
If the means available for disinfection of certain microbiological agents are
inadequate, the safety officer should be consulted and appropriate steps taken.
10.8 Lid/Bowl seal.
Lightly coat the lid seal with French chalk occasionally and in particular after
cleaning.
